The Tennessee Titans are banged up in the secondary. Starting cornerback L’Jarius Sneed is on the shelf with a quad injury, and after losing safety Quandre Diggs against the New England Patriots, they are in desperate need of reinforcements.
A day after adding cornerback Daryl Worley and defensive back Gervarrius Owens to the practice squad, word is coming out that they are in the process of signing veteran safety Mike Edwards to help fill the void left by Diggs’s injury.
Veteran safety Mike Edwards is on his way to Tennessee to sign with the #Titans pending physical, per source.

Edwards does have some experience and is a two-time Super Bowl champion. He has spent time with Tampa Bay, Kansas City and Buffalo. In the midst of a disappointing 2024, where he has notched only seven snaps for the Bills, he was granted his release on Tuesday. In his career, he has seen action in 78 games with 28 starts during his six-year NFL career.
After losing Diggs to injury, the Titans’ depth at safety is thin with starter Amani Hooker, reserve Mike Brown and rookie Julius Wood after they released safety Jamal Adams in October.
The Titans (2-6) visit the Los Angeles Chargers (5-3) on Sunday at SoFi Stadium.
